It SEEMED Like a Good Idea

Gonna lead off the week with a couple of unsurprising items. Doctors without Borders. Médecins Sans Frontières (MSF) officially – well known for going into areas sometimes that even troops don’t want to visit. Sometimes called out for helping folks we don’t necessarily want to help, but they have in many cases been a cause […]

New Flotilla to Gaza

Yet another set of boats and ships are heading to Gaza to try and break the Israeli closure… this could get silly. UPDATE Monday 1 September – the ‘intrepid’ sailors have returned to Barcelona due to heavy seas. Climate campaigner Greta Thunberg joined a flotilla of boats loaded with aid for Gaza as they set […]

Refineries closing

Let’s turn to California – used to be the economic powerhouse of the country, certainly had a reputation as one of the two most car-centric places to be.  But…just as the anti-gun folks find the place Nirvana, the state has become one of the worst to own an internal combustion engine.

Barbra Streisand blames climate change for Santa Ana winds

Barbra Streisand took to X to blame climate change for the winds that facilitated the Los Angeles fires. Streisand was talking about the Santa Ana winds, a naturally occurring event that occurs in conjunction with late fall, winter, and early spring. Like other leftists, Streisand wanted to shift blame or assign responsibility to others when […]

The irony of lithium

  Well, we know that one of the great needs of the grand and glorious EV revolution is lithium. Can’t have an electric car without either a bloody long extension cord or a pretty sizable battery, right? Old-style lead-acid batteries don’t hold enough of a charge for their weight – so the current front running […]

Gas cars today like land lines of the 20th Century

Pete Buttigieg rebuffed criticism against shifting to electric vehicles. He compared that criticism to people who, during the turn of the millennium, assumed that landlines had a secure future as the main phone communication. However, one key reality is missing from this assumption. Consumer demand took off for cell phones. Demand for electric vehicles has […]
